He was an accomplished soloist, having played with some of Europe's leading orchestras, and had premiered several prominent trumpet concertos.
Touvron had given over 3,000 concerts, features on over 70 recordings, and has won several prizes, including three international Grands Prix.
Touvron also taught trumpet and regularly conducted master classes around the world.
He has been called "one of the leading pedagogues of trumpet technique and interpretation France has ever produced."

While his parents were not musicians, his grandfather played the cornet.
At the age of ten Touvron started playing the cornet, and after a few years he became proficient on both the cornet and trumpet.
In 1967 Touvron enrolled at the Paris Conservatory of Music and studied under classical virtuoso trumpeter Maurice André.
A year later the Conservatory awarded Touvron first prize for cornet, and a year after that, first prize for trumpet.

Over 20 compositions have been written for him.
Touvron has performed with orchestras such as I Solisti Veneti, the English Chamber Orchestra, La Scala di Milano, The Luzern Festival Strings, the Prague Chamber Orchestra, as well as French Orchestras of Lyon, Toulouse, Pays de Loire, Pays de Savoie and Auvergne.
